Measuring tool calibration service
Keep your Hilti measuring tools accurate to original manufacturer’s standards
We offer a calibration service to test and readjust your Hilti measuring tools including laser meters, rotating lasers, point and line lasers, concrete scanners and total stations. You will receive a calibration certificate confirming that the tool complies with its original manufacturer’s standards and corresponds to a declaration of conformity according to ISO/IEC 17050-1.
Why calibrate measuring tools?
Factors from harsh weather to tough jobsite conditions over time can affect accuracy
Our Hilti tools are all designed to be high precision instruments. But sometimes their accuracy can be affected by harsh conditions, such as inappropriate storage, temperature fluctuations or mishandling. Accuracy can also be affected over time by rigorous conditions of everyday use.
We therefore recommend that you calibrate your tools regularly, at least once a year.
In some cases you may need to calibrate your tools more often, so please just check with your own internal quality policy to see what you need to fit with your company’s internal audits.
We also recommend that you regularly field test your tools, particularly before critical measurement tasks and if your tools have been subjected to harsh conditions.
You can find more information about this in your tool’s operating instructions.
Measuring tool calibration in three steps
Service covers verification of accuracy, adjustment and a calibration certifcate
Our three-step service includes:
1. Verification of accuracy
We compare your tool’s accuracy with the accuracy defined by our “manufacturer’s specifications” in its user manual.
2. Adjustment, cleaning and service
If the tool doesn’t conform to its original specifications, we adjust the measuring tool or scanner to make it accurate again. We also clean the tool and check that it’s working correctly before sending it back to you.
3. Documentation
We also give you a written report, listing the measurements we’ve carried out for the ingoing and outgoing test values. We also include a calibration certificate confirming that the tool now complies with its original manufacturer’s standards and corresponds to a declaration of conformity according to ISO/IEC 17050-1.
